Choosing solid parquet by type

With solid parquet, you are choosing a genuine wood floor made from solid wood. The various types of parquet differ in format, effect, and durability – from classic strip parquet and fine mosaic parquet to robust wood block paving or decorative panel flooring.

Select the type of parquet that suits your room and its intended use. Quiet living spaces, striking laying patterns, low installation heights, or heavy-duty use place different demands on the floor.

What speaks in favor of solid parquet?

• Natural wood structure
  You get a floor made of solid wood that brings warmth, structure, and the material's natural appeal into the room visually.
• High-quality room effect
  Solid wood parquet gives living areas, workspaces, and representative spaces a high-quality and authentic look.
• Diverse parquet patterns
  Depending on the type of parquet, classic, calm, lively, or decorative floor patterns are created – suitable for the desired design.
• Surface as desired
  Many solid parquet types are laid raw, sanded, and then oiled or sealed. This allows the surface to be adjusted to the usage and appearance.

An overview of solid parquet types

Solid parquet is available in various forms: some parquet types emphasize a classic laying pattern, while others stand for particular durability, low installation height, or a decorative room effect. This allows you to choose the floor to match the style, usage, and structural requirements.

Strip Parquet

Classic solid wood floor with a timeless parquet effect

• Classic strip look
  The individual wood strips create a calm, orderly floor pattern with a traditional parquet character.
• Directional laying
  Strips can be used to visually structure rooms longitudinally, transversely, or through patterns such as herringbone.
• Versatile pattern effect
  Depending on the laying pattern, strip parquet can appear reserved and classic, more lively, or significantly more representative.

Mosaic Parquet

Solid wood floor with a fine lamella pattern and classic effect

• Fine lamella pattern
  The small wood lamellas create a finely detailed parquet look that appears lively without becoming too dominant.
• Classic small patterns
  Typical patterns such as cube, parallel bond, English bond, or triple herringbone give the surface structure.
• Low installation height
  Mosaic parquet remains comparatively slim and is therefore a good option when floor construction height is limited.

Industrial Parquet (Hochkantlamelle)

Robust solid wood floor with a lively industrial parquet look

• Characterful industrial look
  The narrow lamella pattern appears lively, artisanal, and significantly more individual than classic strip formats.
• Edge-set lamellas
  The special arrangement of the lamellas brings a lot of material thickness to the surface and shapes the robust character.
• Lively surface effect
  Color and structural differences emerge more visibly and give the floor a striking, natural movement.

Wood Block/End-Grain

Striking and durable wood floor

• Striking end-grain structure
  The visible end-grain surface shows annual rings and wood structure from an unusual perspective.
• Powerful block character
  The individual wood blocks create a unique, artisanal floor effect with a strong presence.
• Particularly robust parquet type
  The construction is designed for heavy-duty use and differs significantly from classic lamella or strip formats.

Lamp Parquet

Solid parquet with an especially low installation height

• Particularly slim construction
  Lamp parquet is designed for a low installation height and is therefore well-suited for low connections.
• Subtle strip effect
  The format appears more reserved than larger strip formats and fits quietly into existing rooms.
• Renovation-friendly format
  For doors, transitions, or existing floor structures, lamp parquet offers more leeway than thicker solid parquet types.

Panel Flooring

Parquet floor with geometric patterns

• Representative panel patterns
  Geometric patterns give the floor a special effect and bring the surface more into focus.
• Generous room effect
  Panel flooring unfolds its strength particularly where the pattern can have a visible effect and shape the room.
• Decorative parquet art
  The individual panels combine a classic artisanal effect with a highly deliberate floor design.

Planning, installation, and surface

Solid parquet should match the substrate, installation height, room climate, and usage. Pay particular attention to suitable full-surface bonding and a surface finish that matches the future load.

Tip: You want a real wood floor, but prefer a multi-layered structure? Then engineered parquet could be a suitable alternative to solid parquet.
